Hurricane Harvey has already battered much of southeastern Texas, and Houston has seen some of the worst damage so far. That hasn't stopped local journalists from reporting around the clock, bringing the news to those who need it most.

From incredible rescues to keeping Texans informed of how to stay safe as flood waters rise, anchors, photographers and reporters have risked their own safety to keep everyone informed, both on social media, in print and on-air. They've filed stories and photos from their cars, documented and helped in rescue efforts, and even reported on the unexpected dangers from flooding — who knew massive floating fire ant colonies would be a problem?

One of the most incredible moments happened on Sunday morning when KHOU reporter Brandi Smith flagged down a rescue boat to help save a truck driver who was trapped in his cab while the water rapidly rose around him.

While these are only a few examples of how journalists go above and beyond to report on a crisis, check out more coverage below, and keep these journalists in your thoughts as they continue to bring you the news.
